Spotted! Moof
THE DESIGN
Mike Foo aka Moof is the designer behind this spiffy handmade plush. Mike has created several other characters, all in the same family for sure, but with each an own visual personality. If you like what you see, you should absolutely check out Mike’s flickr gallery, where he posts photos of his plushes, his illustrations and sketches. Lovely stuff!
“I started making plush toys after joining MAAD’s plush exhibition last year, and also as a gift for my loved one. My first piece was Mr. Imagine. I wanted to see my illustrations come alive, and plush toys are the way to go. Recently, somebody commissioned me to produce a ninja with only one request, to make him look a bit freaky … the rest was free play. That’s how I came up with Monj (above). The toy making process is spontaneous and depends on the material I select … there’s no fixed set of rules.”
THE DESIGNER
Graphics and webdesign are Mike Foo’s bread and butter, moof is his passion.
“moof expresses my feelings and my soul. It’s an ongoing search and experimentation to develop my interest in drawing, and also a way to free up my mind. The fundamental idea of moof is very simple; to “move” someone with my drawings, it can be as simple as a smile, a feeling or an emotion to let your mind run free.”
Spotted! is a digest of fly work by fresh off creatives.
